BLACK HAIR-STORY: Embracing the power and beauty of Black women's hair this Black History Month, with Lil Kim , Mary J Blige , Nivea & JT of the City Girls. [ Eras from 1995-2023 ] #NotTheBAYANG !
For centuries, our hair has been an undeniable symbol of resilience, creativity, and self-expression. From ancient times to modern-day, it's been our crown, our canvas, our statement.
Yet, the journey to celebrate our natural hair hasn't always been easy. Despite the rich history of using wigs, weaves, and elaborate hairstyles as editorial expressions, and beauty tactics for everyday life we still face backlash for embracing our true selves.
JT, of the City Girls was the most recent topic of discussion just last year for her experimental “ MOWALOLA X BEATS BY DRE “ headphones y2k inspired campaign look. Social media warriors called her names and insulted her existence for telling a story with the look she was in…
People have always hated black women’s hair. Let's reclaim our narrative, honor our roots, and celebrate every strand as a testament to our strength and beauty. — [ x ]

2024 fashion predictions °●○♡
ive had a very strong belief that much like y2k, the early 2010s styles are going to come back!
with taylor swift being such a big name this year, i recalled some of her previous styles. looking back, she's very feminine, and almost "twee" or "quirky fashion"
we'll see lots of cozy clothes, cardigans. i think statement necklaces might come back too. much like the mary jane, the oxford style shoe will come back too.
but what does this mean for j-fashion, or lolita?
i think mori kei might have an uptick. much like how gyaru returned recently, mori will as well (first pic not mori, but how i imagine mori x twee could be?)
the shoes in the last images are like those birkenstocks that have been popular recently! and the bags in the swift image and 2nd pic are very similar!
in lolita, we may see a shift away from the larme color palette, of dusty pink and black, and see more earth tones and floral.
do you agree with my predicts (*´∀`)? what do you predict~?
